Forecasts

Indiana Jones (10/11), Gallyhill (2/1), Francin (7/1), Wild Hunt (11/1), Politicise (20/1)

INDIANA JONES looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to gain his first win over fences on the back of his good Naas second. Gallyhill has the form to play a major part if bouncing back from a poor showing at Thurles, with Francin appealing as the pick of the remainder.
